ZCP rear spoiler or keep Vorsteiner trunk?

My next M3 will be here in January (MCB) and I'm having a hard time deciding between repainting my Vorsteiner trunk to MCB or just buying the ZCP rear spoiler for the stock trunk. Just looking for other people's opinions. Here's the Vorsteiner trunk on my current car:



ZCP rear spoiler:

No question about it - go the ZCP route.

Go with ZCP no doubt keep it simple dont paint it since you need a little off color to make it more appealing.

Must... resist... urge...

I can't!

Friendly reminder that nowhere in the ZCP option package is a spoiler (or front splitters) listed. This is a BMW Performance part, and it gets my vote.

Both are great but I'd be leaning towards OEM

Funny.... I think the vorsteiner looks more like it is stock and the ZCP looks aftermarket. I like the vorsteiner better.

if the UCC were governing this, they would knock each other out and OEM would prevail.

id do the zcp over the vorst any day. in my opinion its better to stay "natural"

i still think the vrs trunk looks nicer. i know some would think its over played but it gives the car a nice clean ducktail. the oem spoiler gets lots of votes here because its 'newer' but how many cars do u really see running around town with a vrs trunk?

ZCP all day.

Vorsteiner fits poorly for the price it demands and doesn't compliment the car's lines. The Ericcson trunk is a different story though.

ZCP gets my vote.
